- It might have been the first time they ran it this camp - Gabbert was under center and took a big step left at the snap before turning right and shoveling it back to RB Jonathan Grimes. It's a nice misdirection concept.

- A not-so-top play. QB Mike Kafka rolled right and opted to throw it away ... and plunked LG Will Rackley.

THUMBS UP

- DT Sen'Derrick Marks has had a great training camp. His highlight Friday came on the second play of 11-on-11 when he was engaged with a blocker, but had the presence of mind to get his hands up to deflect Chad Henne's pass.

- The enthusiasm of tight ends coach Ron Middleton. During a goal-line drill, the pads were popping and Middleton yelled, "I felt that one over here!"

THUMBS DOWN

- Veteran OL Jason Spitz got second-team center reps because Mike Brewster subbed for Meester, and it was a struggle. Spitz had two inaccurate shot-gun snaps and he and Henne had a botched exchange.

- On a punting drill early in practice, Jeremy Ebert dropped a punt and LS Jeremy Cain rolled a snap back to P Ken Parrish
